Designed to locate, trace and measure the depth of buried energized power cables. The key part of the instrument is a compact control box attached to a precision-wound, swivel-mounted detecting coil that operates from three basic positions: Horizontal, Vertical, and 45-degree angle.
Designed to locate, trace and measure the depth of buried energized power cables. The key part of the instrument is a compact control box attached to a precision-wound, swivel-mounted detecting coil that operates from three basic positions: Horizontal, Vertical, and 45-degree angle.
The receiver of the locator features a filtering circuit that responds only to the existing electrical energy radiating from the buried cable. The chronic problem of identification in congested areas is eliminated, because the receiver is insensitive to telephone lines, gas and water pipes, and steel reinforcing.
Features
Applications
By observing the meter on the control panel and/or the sound level in the earphones, an operator can easily follow main cable runs and service laterals. The operator can also pin-point both Y- and T-type splices and subsurface transformers. The 656601 Cable Route Tracer can sometimes be used to locate grounded electrical faults on un-shielded cable, particularly in direct buried installations.
